We give an algebraic description of several modules and algebras related to the vector partition function, and we prove that they can be realized as the equivariant K-theory of some manifolds that have a nice combinatorial description. We…
We study, in the setting of algebraic varieties, finite-dimensional spaces of functions V that are invariant under a ring D^V of differential operators, and give conditions under which D^V acts irreducibly. We show how this problem,…
Let M be a foliated manifold and G a discrete group acting on M by diffeomorphisms mapping leaves to leaves. Then G naturally acts by automorphisms on the algebra of Heisenberg pseudodifferential operators on the foliation. Our main result…
We introduce and study the index morphism for G-invariant leafwise G-transversally elliptic operators on smooth closed foliated manifolds which are endowed with leafwise actions of the compact group G. We prove the usual axioms of excision,…
Matrix divisors are introduced in the work by A.Weil (1938) which is considered as a starting point of the theory of holomorphic vector bundles on Riemann surfaces. In this theory matrix divisors play the role similar to the role of usual…
Let G be a connected compact Lie group acting on a manifold M and let D be a transversally elliptic operator on M. The multiplicity of the index of D is a function on the set of irreducible representations of G. Let T be a maximal torus of…

We introduce a generalized index for certain meromorphic, unbounded, operator-valued functions. The class of functions is chosen such that energy parameter dependent Dirichlet-to-Neumann maps associated to uniformly elliptic partial…
If a differential operator $D$ on a smooth Hermitian vector bundle $S$ over a compact manifold $M$ is symmetric, it is essentially self-adjoint and so admits the use of functional calculus. If $D$ is also elliptic, then the Hilbert space of…
The study of the partition function in M-theory involves the use of index theory on a twelve-dimensional bounding manifold. In eleven dimensions, viewed as a boundary, this is given by secondary index invariants such as the…
We revisit and connect several notions of algebraic multiplicities of zeros of analytic operator-valued functions and discuss the concept of the index of meromorphic operator-valued functions in complex, separable Hilbert spaces.…
We consider the index problem for a wide class of nonlocal elliptic operators on a smooth closed manifold, namely differential operators with shifts induced by the action of an isometric diffeomorphism. The key to the solution is the method…

This is an expository paper which gives a proof of the Atiyah-Singer index theorem for elliptic operators. Specifcally, we compute the geometric K-cycle that corresponds to the analytic K-cycle determined by the operator. This paper and its…
In this expository paper, we explain a formula for the multiplicities of the index of an equivariant transversally elliptic operator on a $G$-manifold. The formula is a sum of integrals over blowups of the strata of the group action and…
